LONDON JOURNALS. [FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS PAY.] [Morning Herald.] THE QUEEN. " Kew, Eight o'Clnek, Oct. 99. The QUEEN still languishes under the most distressing debility, notwithstanding she slept without intermission the whole of last night. the earlier stages of her disorder, her Majesty ex inced some little refreshment twin a night of repose, but since her list paroxysm, even a sue c,'xsion of tranquil nights produces no beneficial erect whatever. Her Majesty now invariably V. - dkes feverish and unrcfreshed ; circumstances v htch make it but too evident, that her sleep is neat the repose of nature, but an artificial torpor produced by medicine. It is said, that the mo t!ier of her Majesty languished several years before 1-. r death in a nearly similar way. " Last night, the Prince Regent remained to dinner with his Royal Sisters. The. Duke of York also arrivf d at the Palace again in the even ing and joined the dinner party. Afterwards the Princes remained in conversation with Sir Henry I - lalford and General Taylor till almost eleven o'clock, and then their Royal Highnesses: returned to town. " Sir Francis Milman left the Palace, yesterday evening, immediately on the arrival of Sir Henry Haltord !tom Windsor ; and he returned from his seat at Pinner, to-day, at three o'clock, when Sir Henry Halford again set off for the Castle. " Their Royal Highnesses the Princesses spent several hours, to-day, in perambulating the delightful domain which surrounds the Palace, and in watching the progress of their imp►ove ments. They ate invariably attended by General Taylor. " To-night, the Prince Regent alighted at the Palace, about half-past five o'clock, and imn►e diately rave audience to Sir Francis Milman. His Royal Highness did not remain more than an hour, and he then returned to Carlton House to dinner. " The inquiries at the Palace, these last two days, have not been so numerous as heretofore." [Morning Chronicle.] The more closely that the scheme 49f Army Re ductions is examined, the less satisfaction %yin be derived from it as a'measore of retrenchment. In the House of Commons last year, Lord PA L MKRSTON distinctly said, that it would be infi nitely more economical to reduce regiments alto gether, than to keep up a number of skeletons. Seventy regiments at 600 men each would be hi finitely more advantageous to the country than ninety at 620 each, and he held out this as the plan of reduction to be pursued, stwing the amount of saving that would thereby accrue.— How will the Noble Secretary at NVar reconcile the plan of reduction actually adopted with that 'which he announced ? The extravagant course is preferred to the economical. The country is saddled with much more expellee than would have been incurred by following the plan of the Noble Lord; and what is of almost equal importance, influence would have been diminished in the same proportion as expence. Letters, dated 9th inst. from Cadiz, mention, that the Spanish merchant ship, San Juan Ban• tista, had arrived there in 110 days from Lima, with a %likable cargo on board, consisting of 551,000 dollars in specie, 6000 fanegas of Guaya quil cocoa, copper, &c. The money is for account of nierchanis. She sailed from Lima in company with the Tagle, Castilla and Preciosa, armed ships, and parted company with them after doubling Cape Horn, in 40 degrees of south latitude. As these ships had not arrived at their destinations, some apprehensions were entertained for their safety. In the Cadiz market, Vales Reales were losing 64 per cent.—(lbid.) [The Tines.] We are desired, trout unquestionable authori ty, to contradict the report, which appeared in our paper of the 23d inst. of a ninthly having broken out on board the convict ship Surrey, RAINe. From what we have heard of the character of Captain Rain e, and ft om our own perusal of official testimonials in his favour, we are persuad ed that the unfortunate objects under his charge s% ill meet with that liberal and humane treatment which is consistent with the arduous duty he has to pertoim. l'his is, we understnud, Captain Raines fourth voyage to New South \Vales : in the former, when he had 150 convicts on board, not One of them was in irons after passing the Cape of Good 1 - lope. We subjoin the following testimonial of his conduct :- 4 , Secretary's °flier, Sydney, 4th February, 1817. ' Si have it - in command to inform you, that his Ex cellency the Governor has perused the journal of your voyage hither, with male convicts from Ireland, and that he is per fectly satisfied with the manner in which it there appears you conducted the arduous duty you had to perform. " His Excellency further desires inc to express to you, that lie was much pleased• with the remarkably healthy state in which those convicts arrived (without the loss of a single Irian); which circumstance, combined with the unanimous testitnony of those persons in favour of your kindness and humanity to them during a long voyage, reflect much credit on you, itnd entitle you to this expression of his Excellency's entire and unqualified approbation of your conduct. " I am, Sir, your obedient servant, ".INO. THOS. CAMPBELL, Secretary. "Captain Thos. " hired Transport Surrey, Sydney-cove." Miss STErn LNS.----The friends of Miss STE:- rm.:Ns have involved her in a scrape with the Cork audience. It seems that they railed in a part of the pit on her benef►t night for box com pany. The audience were very indignant, no thing of the kind having ever been attempted by Stnnoss, KENIBLE, or KEAN. Some of the se• lected seats were seized by the pit folks ; encoun ters °centred between the latter and those who hail taken diem as boxes, and cards were ac tually exchanged —(Dublin Paper.) " DAICK NESS VIIIBLE."-Abont ten minutes be fore the final. close of the performance, on the night of Miss S.

It was lwely stated in The Morning Chronicle, that some difference of opinion prevailed between the Commander-in-Chief and the Earl of LIVER.- Poot. on the proposed reduction in the army. This report has been contradicted, and, from what we have since heard, we have reason to confirm the contradiction, and to consider the report in question as wholly unfounded. We have taken a paragraph from The Morn ing Chronicle of this day, relative to the proposed reduction of the Army, because it accords With the sentiments of several Military Characters who are firmly attached to Government. In the opi• (lion of these Officers the plan of retaining Skele tons of Regiments is best calculated to preserve a military spirit, and, in case of the expediency of recruiting, to afford more means for the Tyro of nll degrees to acquire knowledge, and to maintain discipline. We do not pretend to decide upon a question which demands the attention of profes. 1 , siollai judgments ; but as i 3 a uestiott °' ;.; portance, we shall readily open our co!unin4 tU in candid discussion of it, as we shall always d° , e, 518 any matters that relate to the welfare of the ,0 With respect to the *Mount* of a STANPII*O ARMY, for none but ideots cep Abbe need of a Standing Army to a . ctittmin ex tent, c osta / Bering the military state of other countries, e l° the evil spirits that are constantly at w ork t° dertnine all legitimate Governments, th at ei'tet' a events'l' must be determined by the progress of :, 1 r ought not to be hastily decided.
